Designed for brighter, sharper outdoor viewing, the Bushnell A5 10x42mm gives you the extra reach of 10x magnification with the light-gathering advantage of full-size 42mm objective lenses. It is made for birdwatching, travel, wildlife observation, walking tracks, coastal viewing and everyday outdoor spotting.
Clear, colour-accurate views in a modern outdoor design
The A5 sits at the top of Bushnell’s A-Series range, combining HD glass, fully multi-coated optics, dielectric and phase-coated prisms, and rugged weather protection. The Cilantro Green finish gives it a fresh outdoor look while the wave-pattern rubber armour helps keep the binoculars secure and comfortable in the hand.
Reach10x magnification for finer distant detail
A 10x binocular brings distant subjects closer, making it well suited to birds, wildlife, scenic lookouts, open country, coastline viewing and general long-range observation.
Brightness42mm objectives for full-size performance
The 42mm objective lenses help gather more light than compact binoculars, giving you a brighter image when the day is overcast or when viewing around dawn and dusk.
OpticsHD glass with fully multi-coated lenses
HD glass and fully multi-coated optics help improve clarity, contrast and light transmission so the image looks cleaner and more natural to the eye.
ColourDielectric and phase-coated Bak-4 prisms
Premium roof-prism coatings help maintain colour accuracy, contrast and sharpness, especially when picking out detail in foliage, shadow or textured landscapes.
WeatherIPX7 waterproof construction
Built for outdoor use, the A5 is IPX7 rated, giving you confidence when weather changes, spray hits, or the binoculars are used around damp environments.
ProtectionEXO Barrier lens coating
Bushnell’s EXO Barrier coating helps repel water, oil, dust and debris from the exterior lens surfaces, making the binoculars easier to keep clear in the field.
Why choose the 10x42 A5?
Choose the 10x42 version when you want more reach than an 8x binocular while still keeping the brightness and handling advantages of a full-size 42mm design. It is a strong all-round choice for customers who want a serious outdoor binocular without moving into large, heavy specialist optics.
